Abstract: A sound-absorbing and reinforcing structure for engine
nacelle (20) acoustic panel (24) designed to contain,
in particular, jet engines for jet aircraft; each
acoustic panel (24) has an inner layer (32), which is
perforated and made of composite material, an outer
layer (34), which is not perforated and is made of
composite material, and an intermediate layer (36) made
of a honeycomb structure pressed between the two
previous layers. At each longitudinal joint (40) of the
structure, the layers (32, 34, 36) are connected to a
butt strap (35) by means of a series of connecting
members (38) which ensure the continuity of the fan
flow and maintain in position a portion (36A) of a
layer that is honeycomb-structured and acoustically
treated, the said portion (36A) contributing to the
strength of the joint (40), and hence to the strength
of the entire structure.
Patent EP-1237238-A2 (EP)
Inventor: LEE KYU HAENG
IPC: H01S3/067
Filed: 2001-04-11
Abstract: In a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system which
has been rapidly developed, there are some drawbacks regarding
self-phase modulation (SPM), cross-phase modulation (XPM),
four-wave mixing (FWM), etc., according to adding and dropping
of channels. The invention relates to a gain-clamped optical fiber
amplifier including a fiber bragg grating (700) for intercepting
and reflecting a light having a predetermined wavelength, for
example, 1528nm or 1561nm, other than optical signals output
from optical fiber amplifiers (erbium doped fiber amplifiers
EDFAs) (300,500). The reflected light is fed back to the
optical fiber amplifiers (300,500) by way of a circulator (600),
a feed back loop (900) and a tap coupler (100). The gain-clamped
optical fiber amplifier of the invention establishes a ring
laser structure where the reflected light is repeatedly fed
back to the optical fiber amplifiers (300,500), thus
maintaining the amplification gain of the optical signals
within an acceptable level of gain fluctuation in the optical
WDM transmission system.

authorisation, and to dispense an item to fulfil a requested
transaction associated with the transaction authorisation,
without the terminal preparing an authorisation request.

Abstract: The present invention allows the cell shape of any
base station in operation to be changed, thereby enabling
services to be provided according to the needs. A mobile
terminal attempts to synchronize with a perch channel to
thereby check whether or not it can receive the signal,
thereby determining whether it belongs to the cell of the
base station (S302), The mobile terminal uses the GPS to
obtain location information to identify the location
(S303) and notifies a cell control apparatus of results
for cell determinations and location information (S304).
The cell control apparatus selects a base station for which
the corresponding cell shape is to be changed (S305), on
the basis of the results for cell determinations and the
location information. The cell control apparatus
instructs the selected base station to change its cell
shape (S306). The base station changes its cell shape
according to the instruction (S307).

Abstract: Die Schaltung zur adaptiven Geräuschunterdrückung ist Bestandteil eines digitalen Hörgeräts, bestehend aus zwei Mikrophonen (1, 2), zwei AD-Wandlern (3, 4), zwei Kompensationsfiltern (5, 6), zwei Verzögerungselementen (7, 8), zwei Subtrahierern (9, 10), einer Verarbeitungseinheit (11), einem DA-Wandler (13), einem Hörer (15) sowie den zwei Filtern (17, 18). Das Verfahren zur adaptiven Geräuschunterdrückung kann mit der angegebenen Schaltung realisiert werden. Die beiden Mikrophone (1, 2) liefern abhängig von ihrer räumlichen Anordnung oder ihrer Richtcharakteristik und abhängig vom Ort der akustischen Signalquellen unterschiedliche elektrische Signale (d1(t), d2(t)), die in den AD-Wandlern (3, 4) digitalisiert und mit den beiden fixen Kompensationsfiltern (5, 6) vorverarbeitet werden. Anschliessend folgen die symmetrisch übers Kreuz in Vorwärtsrichtung angeordneten Filter (17, 18) mit den adaptiven Filterkoeffizienten (w1, w2). Die Filterkoeffizienten (w1, w2) werden mit einem stochastischen Gradientenverfahren berechnet und in Echtzeit aufdatiert unter Minimierung einer aus Kreuzkorrelationstermen bestehenden quadratischen Kostenfunktion. Dadurch werden spektrale Unterschiede der Eingangssignale selektiv verstärkt. Bei geeigneter Platzierung der Mikrophone (1, 2) oder Auswahl der Richtungscharakteristiken kann somit das Signal-Rausch-Verhältnis von Ausgangssignalen (s1, s2) verglichen mit demjenigen der einzelnen Mikrophonsignale (d1(t), d2(t)) wesentlich erhöht werden. Vorzugsweise eines der verbesserten Ausgangssignale (s1, s2) wird in einer der Verarbeitungseinheiten (11, 12) der üblichen hörgerätespezifischen Verarbeitung unterzogen, zu einem der DA-Wandler (13, 14) geschickt und über einen der Hörer (15, 16) wieder akustisch ausgegeben. Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung nehmen vier zusätzliche Kreuzglied-Filter (19-22) eine signalabhängige Transformation der Ein- und Ausgangssignale (y1, y2; s1, s2) vor, und zur Aufdatierung der Filterkoeffizienten (w1, w2) werden nur die transformierten Signale verwendet. Dies ermöglicht eine schnell reagierende und trotzdem recheneffiziente Aufdatierung der Filterkoeffizienten (w1, w2) und verursacht im Gegensatz zu anderen Verfahren nur minimale hörbare Verzerrungen. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An igniter for use in industrial and domestic gas burning appliances is disclosed. One embodiment of the igniter includes an igniter element disposed on the longitudinal axis of a tubular shield. The shield includes at least one open slot formed therethrough for providing a passageway through which gas and air can flow, thereby forming one or more open spiral patterns in the tubular shield. Another embodiment of the igniter includes an igniter element disposed on the longitudinal axis of a spiral coil. Still another embodiment of the igniter includes an igniter element disposed on the lontigudinal axis of a ceramic, cylindrical sleeve. The sleeve includes at least one hole formed therethrough for optimally exposing the igniter element to a gas flow. The tubular shield, the spiral coil, and the ceramic sleeve protect the igniter element from accidental damage or breakage, and allow an optimal flow of gas and air to the igniter element, thereby facilitating subsequent ignition of the gas.

Abstract: A process is provided for heap leaching ore to recover nickel. The process is particularly effective for ores that have a tangible clay component (i.e., greater than 10 % by weight). The process includes sizing the ore (where necessary), forming pellets by contacting ore with a concentrated sulfuric acid lixiviant and agglomerating. The pellets are formed into a heap and leached with a sulfuric acid solution to extract the metal values, including nickel. The leachate may be subjected to a nickel recovery operation without the need for intermediate neutralization.

Abstract: A light emitting device is provided which is capable of displaying in desired
colors stably by controlling a change in luminance of OLED when an organic light
emitting layer is degraded or there is a change in temperature of the surroundings. A
reference value for the amount of current flowing into a pixel portion is calculated from
data of a video signal. Then, the pixel portion displays an image in accordance with
the data of the video signal and the drive current at the time is measured for all of
OLEDs in the pixel portion. The two voltage values supplied from a variable power
supply to the pixel portion are corrected such that the measured drive current
approaches the reference value. With the above structure, lowering of luminance which
accompanies degradation of an organic light emitting layer is prevented and a clear
image can be displayed as a result.

Abstract: A thermal barrier coating (TBC) (26) for a component (10) intended for use in
a hostile environment, such as the superalloy turbine, combustor and

would otherwise allow or promote grain sintering and coarsening and pore
coarsening, the consequence of which would be densification of the TBC (26)
and therefore increased thermal conductivity. If sufficiently fine, the
precipitates (34) also serve to pin the grains (30) and pore boundaries of the
TBC (26), the effect of which is to reduce the tendency for the microstructure
of the TBC (26) to sinter, coarsen and undergo pore redistribution, which also
increase thermal conductivity of the TBC (26).
